Bach presented at least four different versions of the St. John Passion during his lifetime. Burlington Baroque's performances will feature the rarely heard 1725 version in a regional premiere.
Directed by Eric Milnes, the Burlington Baroque Festival Singers are joined by L'Harmonie des saisons, Montreal's Juno Award-winning period instrument orchestra, and internationally-acclaimed vocal soloists in presenting this stirring and profound musical journey through Christ’s final days. Bach’s work is a powerful, emotional gateway into the drama of Holy Week, offering a deeply moving experience through its arias, choruses, and chorales. This sacred masterpiece is a momentous journey for both new and returning audiences.
